NOT FOR SALE ANYMORE -Martin HD-28 LSV 1999-1 3/4 neck,scalloped, fwd shifted bracing
Note: I have been playing this guitar a lot lately and decided I can't part with it. It has that vintagy, clean, warm sound that would cost me a minimum of few more thousands of dollars to achieve again. It makes no sense to sell or trade at this time. I really need to stop browsing classifieds and getting stupid ideas...like this one.
Thank you all for all offers. For sale is a very sought out early 1999 HD-28 LSV with Adi top. Not many of these Adi topped ones were made. Martin switched to Sitka in early 2000. 1 ¾ modified V satin neck (super comfy), forward shifted scalloped braces, large soundhole, Gotoh kluson replica tuners, long saddle, fine herringbone and nice wide 2 5/16 spacing at the bridge. Decked out with vintage. Has similar specs as D-28 Marquis but for $1,000 less! Or think of it as a D-18GE with rosewood back and sides and large soundhole. It's a beast. Amazing guitar for Flatpicking as well as fingerstyle. The action is perfect medium to low (0.095 low E, 0.80 high E at the 12th fret). The neck is straight (0.04 relief) with plenty of saddle. Frets are in good shape. Adi top has VERY nice and tight grain and has opened up nicely from 20 years of playing. Has a couple of small scratches and tiny dings but overall condition is 9/10. This guitar needs nothing. Comes in original Martin case (missing the back latch) The only reason I’m selling is that I’m more into mahogany as of late. For trades, I’ would be interested in D-18GE, D-16 Adi, 1964 or earlier D-18. Maybe pre-1965 J-45.

Smart move. I thought you might regret this sale. I've done the same thing and regretted every time. Take a break from guitar websites for a few weeks and enjoy your lovely Martin.
